The Army found they had too many officers and NCOs and decided to offer an early retirement bonus. They promised any officer who volunteered for retirement a bonus of $1,000 for every inch measured in a straight line between any two points in his body. The officer got to choose what those two points would be.
The first officer who accepted, asked that he be measured from the top of his head to the tip of his toes. He was measured at six feet and walked out with a bonus of $72,000.
The second officer who accepted was a little smarter and asked to be measured from the tip of his outstretched hands to his toes. He walked out with $96,000.
The third one was a grizzly old Master Sergeant who, when asked where he would like to be measured replied "from the tip of my penis to my testicles." It was suggested by the pension man that he might want to reconsider explaining about the nice cheques the previous two officers had received but the old Sarge insisted and they decided to go along with him provided the measurement was taken by a medical officer. The medical officer arrived and instructed the Sergeant to "drop 'em", which he did.
The medical officer placed the tape measure on the tip of the Sergeants penis and began to work back. "My God!" he suddenly exclaimed, "Where are your testicles?" The old Sergeant smugly replied... "Iraq!."

I wonder how much did he get ??
it could be around 5000 miles =about 24 000 feet = 288 000 '' .....
288 000 · $1000 = $288 000 000 ...
ofcourse i rounded (sea)mile to about 4800 feet (1 sea mile = 1,67 km, altough i should look at ground mile= 7200 yards/meters)
You must forgive me my lack of knowledge about land distances in USA because I live in Europe and my land distances are measured in meters.
In this case my equation would differ in several millions dollars
what a little difference 

it could be around 5000 miles =about 24 000 feet = 288 000 '' .....
288 000 · $1000 = $288 000 000 ...
